I got invited to the Lexus Open Road event at De Vere Oulton Hall, Leeds yesterday. I intended to only to test drive the GS450h, IS250 saloon and ISF, but I ended up testing driving most of the Lexus range.

Pics below (Beware there are a lot of pics!):

but they wouldnt go wrong often mate. LED's don't blow. and they are very directional so this is useful for driving use

Well, Lexus do a nice range of cars- from luxurious cruisers to to performance cars, why bother with another brand? In fact, I am now seriously considering buying a GS450h (I still love my IS200 though).
